Upgrading React native from 0.57 to 0.58.5 - reactjs

Question

After upgrading to React Native 0.58.5 from 0.57, there is an error whenever installing a npm module:
npm WARN react-native#0.58.5 requires a peer of react#16.6.3 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.
npm ERR! path C:\d\code\js\emps\node_modules\colors

Here is the part of package.json:
"dependencies": {
"react": "^16.8.2",
"react-native": "^0.58.5",
"react-native-code-push": "^5.5.2",
"react-native-device-info": "^0.26.4",
"react-native-gifted-chat": "^0.7.2",
"react-navigation": "^3.3.0"
},
The react version is alreay 16.8.2 which is newer than what the message suggests. What causes the error message? Is the react-native too new?

Answer 1

pertaining to the npm ERR!, you are required to run npm install color -S as the color package is missing from your json file.
hope this helps!

Answer 2

I end up reinstalling the whole system and notice that the react version is locked at 16.6.2 which is not the latest one (16.8.2). The problem may be incompatibility issues caused by newer react. Here is part of package.json after re-installation:
"dependencies": {
"react": "16.6.3",
"react-native": "0.58.5",
"react-native-code-push": "^5.5.2",
"react-native-device-info": "^0.26.4",
"react-native-gifted-chat": "^0.7.2",
"react-native-navigation": "^2.12.0",
"react-navigation": "^3.3.2"
},
"devDependencies": {
"babel-core": "7.0.0-bridge.0",
"babel-jest": "24.1.0",
"jest": "24.1.0",
"metro-react-native-babel-preset": "0.52.0",
"react-test-renderer": "16.6.3"
},
"jest": {
"preset": "react-native"
}
